“A time for the wicked. Yet another day to punish the innocent for their sins.” In late-nineteenth century Ottoman Turkey, two Armenian boys are fighting—for purpose and acceptance, for a way out of the harsh poverty they both live in, and for their lives—as violence erupts against Armenians within the empire. Both Ari and Vartan bear witness to the horrific massacre of their town at the hands of Ottoman forces, but Ari continues to struggle and care for his sick mother while Vartan works and builds a life. However, as each of their worlds are ripped apart by the violence around them, their lives end up intertwining in ways they never could have predicted. As God Played His Fiddle is a powerful tale of struggle, survival, and salvation. Through the complex lives of Ari and Vartan, readers will find strength to sacrifice and hope to endure.
The People’s Lawyer A Novel by Muhammad Ari Pratomo This novel is not only about law. Not only about courtrooms, articles, or power. It is a story about the courage to remain honest. About a voice that cannot be bought. About principles that are never traded. And about something far more important than victory: the courage to resist, even when the outcome is uncertain. Law students and every legal practitioner must read this novel. Its story is also worthy of being adapted into a film, one that stirs honesty in every conscience during this age of deepening corruption. Thank you for reading.

Bali is a paradise that captivates the world, but beneath its captivating charm lies a complex and intertwined system of laws, customs, and mystical beliefs. This book thoroughly examines how these three aspects shape Balinese life and how everyone—tourists, expatriates, newcomers, and investors—needs to adapt to live in harmony with them. Through an easy-to-understand legal and anthropological approach, the author invites readers to delve into: · Formal laws that apply in Bali and legal loopholes that often ensnare foreign tourists. · The role of awig-awig and pararem in the lives of Balinese indigenous people. · The conflict between state law and customary law is unavoidable. · Spiritual prohibitions and mystical taboos that are still believed in and obeyed. · The power of traditional villages, social sanctions, and local value systems are very much alive. · How to be a respected guest and not a disruptor of Bali's spiritual order. Written by Muhammad Ari Pratomo, a lawyer who also understands socio-cultural aspects, this book is not only an ethical guide, but also a window into seeing Bali as a living entity worthy of respect, not just enjoyment.
